Which one?

HELLO132

I live in Glasnevin and am just wondering which college would be quicker/less hassle to get to, ITB or ITT (Tallaght)? I wouldn't mind doing either course it would just help me decide which to put top of the CAO if i knew which was easier to get to

I don't have a car so would be relying on public transport

I went to school in Glasnevin, 40D bus leaves you a 5 minute walk outside ITB.

as far as tallaght is concerned there's buses that stop right outside the institute from city centre and you can also get the luas out which is quicker i would guess but if you're combining a student monthly bus and luas ticket that would be more expensive i guess.

don't know about blanch but it seems to be in the middle of nowhere. is it near blanchardstown shopping centre (the big one)?

institute in tallaght seems to be close to the square anyway?

Bicycle to Blanch?

if you miss the 8:19 from town you have to wait over an hour for the next one.


Ugh tallaght all the way unless you want to pick up the blanchardtown buses that go more regular at phibsboro church if its not too much of a walk from where you live

or if you're near the whitworth road end you could walk down to drumcondra train station and get the train to castleknock. 15 min walk then at least i'd say. dunno

Tallaght's grand in that there's the Luas, the 49, the 50, the 56a, the 65b, the 75 the 77 and the 77a that all leave from town. You're guaranteed a bus at least every seven minutes or so.
